I’ve been noticing a lot of head-to-toe denim in magazine pages. I thought this was a no-no, but I’m a little curious about the trend. Do you have any advice on how to make this look chic? – Jennifer
Denim-on-denim used to be a cardinal sin amongst the fashionable (too bad my 12-year-old self didn’t know that), but now it’s one of the biggest trends for spring. But you must tread lightly because no one wants to look like a farmer or prisoner walking the streets. After the jump, we give you tips for wearing a denim shirt with jeans.
The top should be a light to medium wash. It should also fit just right — not too tight or too loose.

The jean can be any fit you prefer, but should definitely be darker than the top. You can also get away with a pair of true black jeans.
